Calling in [sound recording] : how to start making change with those you'd rather cancel / by Ross, Loretta J.,1953-author,narrator.;
Read by the author.Calling In is at once a handbook, a manifesto, and a memoir, because the power of Loretta Ross's message comes from who she is and what she's lived through. She's a Black woman who's deprogrammed white supremacists, a survivor who's taught convicted rapists the principles of feminism. With stories from her five remarkable decades in activism, she vividly illustrates why calling people in, inviting them into conversation instead of conflict by focusing on your shared values over a desire for punishment, is the more strategic choice if you want to make real change. And she shows you how to do so, whether in the workplace, on a college campus, or in your living room.

Stories are weapons : psychological warfare and the American mind / by Newitz, Annalee,1969-author.(CARDINAL)347866;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 207-227) and index.Preface: The brain fog of war -- Part I: Psyops. The mind bomb -- A fake frontier -- Advertisements for disenfranchisement -- Part II: Culture wars. Bad brains -- School rules -- Dirty comics -- Part III: Disarmament. History is a gift -- Deprogramming for democracy -- Public spheres of the future."Annalee Newitz traces the way disinformation, propaganda, and violent threats--the essential tool kit for psychological warfare--have evolved from military weapons used against foreign adversaries into tools used in domestic culture wars. Newitz delves into America's deep-rooted history with psychological operations, beginning with Benjamin Franklin's Revolutionary War-era fake newspaper and reaching its apotheosis with disinformation during twenty-first-century elections. The nation's secret weapon has long been coercive storytelling, fashioned by operatives who drew on their experiences in the ad industry and as science-fiction writers. Now, through a weapons-transfer program long unacknowledged, it has found its way into the hands of culture warriors, in conflicts from school-board fights over LGBTQ+ students to campaigns against feminist viewpoints. Stories Are Weapons delivers a powerful counter-narrative, as Newitz highlights the process of psychological disarmament, speaking with Indigenous archivists preserving their histories in new ways, activist storytellers, and technology experts transforming social media"--
